Question about Philips Hue Play base

It depends on what exactly you want to do. As far as I know, you can use the Philips Hue app to create automations that are fairly customisable.

I had to try it out first, but you don't seem to be able to set your own scene for individual lamps. If you select an entire room, you can.

I only have predefined settings such as night light, quiet phase, bright etc. to choose from.
